Check out Craigslist and find out what the market will bear for the
area where your client is. I have seen clients trying to pay anywhere
from intern (free) to $17.50/hr to $30/hr in NYC which is a joke. A #3
at Mickey Dee's cost north of $8 in NYC...

Anyway, anything less than $75/hr is a waste of time imo, but we'll see
where all this goes. There are a lot people willing to lose money to
get experience, buzz...

You may do better to approach with an entrepreneurial perspective and
solve a problem for the client rather that trade skill for dollars.

You might be able to get a few data points from http://www.Bid4Vid.com. Take a look at the search for producers and there are some rates on their profiles. I
